Lorenzo Castiello

Accademia Costume & Moda

My name is Lorenzo Castiello a graduating student in Accessories, Fashion and Costume at Accademia Costume & Moda in Rome. My work comes from a silent part of me. A personal fascination with what lies beneath the surface. I have always been drawn to themes that are intense, emotional, and sometimes uncomfortable, because they often reveal something genuine about the human experience. Dark aesthetics play an important role in my creative vision, not only as a stylistic choice but as a way of exploring contrast, vulnerability, and meaning. I am interested in the tension between strength and fragility, presence and introspection, beauty and imperfection. Rather than creating objects that are simply visually appealing, I aim to create work that conveys emotion, character, and purpose. For me, design is an ongoing process of observation and reflection a way of translating complex feelings and ideas into tangible forms.

Working with our partners at Arts Thread to develop lifelong learning and career opportunities for students of fashion and design. Our partnership provides the opportunity to compete on a world stage, participate in industry led workshops, set up an outstanding portfolio and gain access to the resources that will kickstart careers in fashion and design.
